had the opportunity to attend the wonderful 27th IRSCL conference in Salamanca this week, where i showcased a poster on Adiba Jaigirdar’s YA fiction and the negotiation of sapphic diasporic identities which received the Best Poster Award (English) so thank you to everyone who voted! 📚📖📝

Made it! This is my 20th #NCTE. First time attending was Indianapolis in 2004. Only year I’ve missed was 2015 Minneapolis (I’d used my travel funding to go to IRSCL 2015 in the UK).

Very tired, but it’s great to be back at one of the conferences I consider home. Also looking forward to ALAN! 📚
